A theme that lately[74] set my soul on fire.—
And Thou the next! yet equal! Thou, by whom
That blessing was convey’d; far more! was bought;
Ineffable the price! by whom all worlds
Were made; and one redeem’d! illustrious Light
From Light illustrious! Thou, whose regal power,
Finite in time, but infinite in space,
On more than adamantine basis fix’d,
O’er more, far more, than diadems, and thrones,
Inviolably reigns; the dread of gods! 2270
